hi, i also use this camera, but when i turn on the flash, the red light does not turn on. the flash does not fire even if the flash button is on. does this mean my camera is broken? i don't know... if the flash does not fire, am i not able to take the photo? i don't know much about cameras, i would be glad if you could help me.

Wow. Your photos suck.

I picked up one and have used it on two of my cameras. Yashica 124 g with the cable and Pentax LX with the hot shoe. I mostly used the half power and the results were great.

These would’ve looked great in e6

Reflx Lab didn't send me this flash (they sent me the mini one, which I didn't finish that video on yet eek, had to shoot a wedding today) I bought the simple flash, but mine did not come with those gels. Bummer!

Nice device.😊

love the portraits! and the holga shots came out great :)

Oh awesome!!!

If you like vintage film cameras (who doesn't?), find and buy a functioning Minolta AL-F or HiMatic-E to use with this flash. Those cameras were designed to be used with full-power manual flashes, as they set the aperture based on focusing distance with manual flashes. You select the guide number on the lens, and the camera does the rest. You can get Wegee-like black backgrounds in many lighting situations, shooting manual flash, if the flash is powerful enough. A guide number of 10 likely won't do that in most situations.

Nice-looking kids! 😉

I need a simple handheld slave flash. The stuff they have in the thrift store has too many buttons and idk how any of it works

Nice!

Nice find, I've never seen that one before? 😊

Short and sweet.....very good !!! ... rb

Trip 35 🥰

3:06 -- the dual-lens point & shoots are fun -- less limiting than a single-focal-length point & shoot, but not as flexible as a zoom, and most of them don't have much of a telephoto lens. I've been collecting various models (Nikon TeleTouch also) and comparing them. The methods that the various companies used to switch between the lenses are fascinating, usually Rube-Goldberg mechanisms that can be prone to failure/jamming up. It's always fun to use a camera that is louder when switching between the internal lenses than shooting or even rewinding!!! 😁

I can just imagine some of those basic P&S cameras you have hanging from pegs at my local Target/Kmart/Caldor/Jamesway in the mid '90s, all of them in those impossible-to-open plastic clamshells.

Love that you have the patience to develop and scan but not to futz around in Photoshop.

Nice collection. Sorry I missed it. Went to bed early that evening. 😂😎

These are really great! LomoChrome Purple is one of my favourite films to use for portraits.

can you show as the settings and how long you shoot long exposures please

Some fun stuff there! I have a Nikon TW-2, which may be the forerunner of your twin lens compact. It shoots good but by golly it is noisy! Great stuff! Keith

Nice find.

$9?! Here in Canada, it costs what, $30 now?!

Pls change your profile pic. I always think im watching a Marty Schwartz video until i see your username

Fun to see your cameras on the second shelf. I'm enjoying this series. :0)

Ah, Brecksville, my lovely home town.

Groovy!

I also see a lot of rangefinder and point and shoots. Are these what you have a preference for, or do you have a shelf of slr or tlr cameras?

Nice collecrion and thanks for sharing it wirh us. I have the mental disorder of camera colleting as well. Happy ro see im not alone.

Wait, did I see right on that Olympus go (1st camera)? You choose iso 200, 400 or flash for each shot?

Hello! Probably nobody is going to see the comment, but as a first filmcamera now, would you recommend this or the Kodak H35? Can’t decide if a new or old is better choice and which one is better quality! - would thank a lot for an answer:) Liked the video a lot!

Thanks

Thanks for sharing your collection Dave, sorry I missed the Live!

Very interesting that you scan bw in color. I have the epson v550 and never thought to scan bw in color. You claim it increases contrast. I’ll have to give it a try. Thanks for the tip 👍🏻

I love developing in the bags it makes things so much easier!

Great vid. I’ve only been able to pull off a 1 day shoot/dev/scan a handful of times. But it’s an awesome feeling when you can.

That was a very interesting video Dave. I've never seen the full process of using the dark bag before. Definitely looks like it takes some practice working blind like that? Really enjoyed it! Hope you are doing well!

Excellent start to finish guide, and wished I had the space to do the same.

I got the H35N...

Definitely dig the shot at 24:17 The three gas pumps looks like dystopia robots all washed up

Of course I’ll stay for your day of photo fun! I’m amazed you pried off the canister end in one shot!, takes me several tries to get the end off! Wow you fit the big can in the bag too! More comments as I watch more of your video. Good stuff, Dave! 🎉

Short, sweet, and straight to the point! Thank you!!!

Well, I am almost inspired to do this myself! Did at home when I was in high school (many years ago) in my bathroom -- and yeah, it was fun (took the negatives back to school to make prints and got a few shots in yearbooks)....

Your 'school-bell' alarm had me looking for teachers chasing me down!!!! 😅

Great video! Thanks for putting the time into showing your process.
